The right window for the right place, is one of the secrets of a comfortable home, and with the new windows on the market, energy conservation and maintenence free care are making windows still an integral part of any house. Not only do windows offer many practical advantages but they also add to the ap- pearance of any home, "There's no more putting up and taking down storm windows twice a year with the new windows from Dash- wood,"says Bill, "with the energy efficient twin seal or triple seal insulating glass. And if a home owner installs the Millenium series from Dashwood, there's no more need for a paint brush either." The Millenium, which is available in white or timber tone, features a tough maintenance -free plastic skin over high quality pine, that in itself is a good insulator.. The Millenium surface is. ten times thicker than any fac- tory applied paint and stays flexible no matter what the weather, bouncing back blows. Bill has a complete selection in stock from the economical cottage slider, right up to the ultimate in convenience, the Millenium patio door.
